From New York Times bestselling author Gilly Macmillan comes this original, chilling and twisty mystery about two shocking murder cases twenty years apart, and the threads that bind them.

Twenty years ago, eleven-year-olds Charlie Paige and Scott Ashby were murdered in the city of Bristol, their bodies dumped near a dog racing track. A man was convicted of the brutal crime, but decades later, questions still linger.

For his whole life, filmmaker Cody Swift has been haunted by the deaths of his childhood best friends. The loose ends of the police investigation consume him so much that he decides to return to Bristol in search of answers. Hoping to uncover new evidence, and to encourage those who may be keeping long-buried secrets to speak up, Cody starts a podcast to record his findings. But there are many people who don't want the caseâ??along with old woundsâ??reopened so many years after the tragedy, especially Charlie's mother, Jess, who decides to take matters into her own hands.

When a long-dead body is found in the same location the boys were left decades before, the disturbing discovery launches another murder investigation. Now Detective John Fletcher, the investigator on the original case, must reopen his dusty files and decide if the two murders are linked. With his career at risk, the clock is ticking and lives are in jeopardy..… (mehr)

Clever use of a true crime podcast. Appreciating Gilly Macmillan more with each novel. ( )

Brilliant! I enjoyed this book very much. I loved the podcast element. The twists that came were absolutely surprising for me.
I think this is one of those books that you will either love or hate. Some of the characters you will probably dislike and distrust. One of those I could relate to which made it easier for me to understand her even while I didn’t trust her. This is a crime thriller with two children who are murdered. I think that is difficult for most people. I want to say more on that but to do so, might ruin things for you. My advice is to try it. If you are on the fence about it, use the free sample option. I was surprised by it. The last half of the book, I could not stop reading.
Thank you to Harper Collins and the BookShout app for providing a free copy of this book without any requirement for a review. The review is based on my thoughts of the story. This is the first book of Gilly Macmillan’s that I have read. I do plan to read more from this author. ( )

I am officially hooked on Gilly MacMillan. I have read two of her novels and love the long, slow, and curving path she takes in crafting interesting mysteries with compelling and interesting characters. This book is especially fun and timely, focusing on a "real-crime podcast" revolving around a 20-year-old case. ( )

Two boys were beaten to death twenty years ago. The mentally challenged young man wrongly convicted of the murder took his own life in prison. Now a friend of the two boys is investigating the murders through the unlikely method of podcasts. This is a mystery thriller filled with enough twists that should have made it a winner but this one is spoiled by unpleasant people and faulty procedures curiously accepted. The podcast device made the story choppy and didn't work particularly well. I liked Macmillan's debut, also about a murdered child, but this one leaves a bad taste in the mouth. I won't be reading any more by this author. ( )

Podcaster Cody Swift, the protagonist of this exceptional psychological thriller from Edgar-finalist Macmillan, was best friends with two boys—11-year-old Scott Ashby and 10-year-old Charlie Paige—who were beaten to death in Bristol, England, in 1996. In February 2017, Sidney Noyce, a mentally challenged adult who was convicted of the killings, commits suicide in prison. Two months later, Cody returns to Bristol to reexamine the murders in a series of podcasts that raise doubts about Sidney’s guilt. The people he angers include Jess Paige, Charlie’s mother, who turns to wealthy Felix Abernathy to control Cody’s probing; Det. Supt. Howard Smail, whose career was ended by the case; and Det. Insp. John Fletcher, who built the case against Sidney. The podcasts draw increasing threats as Cody’s interviews reveal more and more new details. Macmillan skillfully marries this information with revealing scenes from the original investigation. A brilliantly clever ending caps this riveting thriller.
